It relies on the reciprocating motion of a piston within a cylinder to change the volume of a sealed working chamber, thereby achieving oil suction and pressure. The piston pump cylinder has an inner bore. The primary function of this bore is to ensure the piston's smooth movement within the cylinder, providing sufficient kinetic energy for stable equipment operation. The dimensional accuracy of the inner bore determines the stability of the equipment; therefore, the requirements for bore diameter accuracy and surface roughness are extremely high.

It also includes an auxiliary mechanism. This auxiliary mechanism is fixedly mounted in the middle of the lifting frame. When the auxiliary mechanism bores the cylinder block, it generates chips. A cutting component performs three-dimensional chip breaking, solving the problem of chip generation during boring. A negative pressure component mixes and collects the chips and cutting fluid using negative pressure water absorption, eliminating the impact of chips and cutting fluid on boring precision and efficiency. When machining the cylinder block... Figure 7-11 As shown, the radial hole is on the outer circle of the cylinder body, and the cylinder end face is provided with oil holes that correspond one-to-one with the radial hole. The hole diameter tolerance is 0mm to +0.015mm, and the surface roughness requirements are as follows: Ra0.3, Rz2.5, Rp1.5 (Ra: arithmetic mean deviation of the profile, Rz: height of ten points of micro-irregularity, also known as the maximum height of the profile, Rp: maximum peak height of the profile).

[0049] The radial bore machining process for a plunger pump cylinder block in this embodiment includes the following steps:
[0050] Step S1: Grind both ends of cylinder block 5;
[0051] Step S1.1: Use machining equipment to precision machine one end of the cylinder block 5;
[0052] Step S1.2: Use machining equipment to precision machine one end of the cylinder block 5;
[0053] Step S2: Machining a single radial hole 51 on cylinder block 5;
[0054] Step S2.1, one-time processing;
[0055] Step S2.11: Use a precision machining center to operate, and fix the part in the machining position of the precision machining center;
[0056] Step S2.12: Machining is performed sequentially using a pliers drill, a flat end mill, a boring bar, and a hobbing cutter;
[0057] Step S2.121: First, use a pliers drill to remove the excess material to form a radial hole 51, and make the radial hole 51 connected to the oil hole 52;
[0058] Step S2.122: Use a flat-bottom milling cutter to remove the excess material at the bottom of the hole;
[0059] Step S2.123: Then use a boring tool for finishing to ensure the rolling allowance is 0.01mm;
[0060] Step S2.2, secondary processing;
[0061] The hole is machined to size using a roller burnisher, with a diameter tolerance of 0mm to +0.01mm and a surface roughness of Ra0.15, Rz1.5, and Rp1.0.
[0062] During the processing in step S2.121, the coolant is directly applied to the contact position between the pliers drill and the cylinder 5 through the cooling mechanism to achieve cooling of the cylinder 5;
[0063] During the processing in steps S2.122, S2.123 and S2.2, coolant is introduced from the oil hole 52 through the cooling mechanism, and the coolant in the oil hole 52 is discharged from the radial hole 51 to achieve cooling and prevent the cylinder body 5 from overheating and deforming during the processing, which would affect the processing accuracy.
[0064] In step S2, when machining with a pliers drill, flat end mill, boring tool and hobbing cutter, the center of the tool and the center of the radial hole 51 of the cylinder body 5 are on the same axis, with an error of less than 0.02mm;
[0065] Step S3: Machin the remaining radial holes 51;
[0066] After the cylinder 5 is driven to rotate by the rotary device of the machining center to rotate at a set angle, step 2 is repeated and the cycle is repeated until all radial holes 51 are machined and the part is removed.
[0067] Tables 1 and 2 are derived from the roughness and diameter tolerance data of the radial holes 51 on the cylinder block 5 before and after the improvement.
[0068] Table 1: Comparison of the roughness of radial hole 51 on cylinder block 5 before and after improvement (unit: micrometers)
[0069] Before improvement 0.3 2.5 1.5 Improved 0.15 1.5 1.0
[0070] Table 2: Diameter tolerance of radial bore 51 in cylinder block before improvement (unit: mm)
[0071] Sample 1 +0.012 +0.008 Sample 2 +0.013 +0.009 Sample 3 +0.012 +0.010 Sample 4 +0.015 +0.007 Sample 5 +0.012 +0.008 Sample 6 +0.011 +0.007 Sample 7 +0.011 +0.009 Sample 8 +0.014 +0.008 Sample 9 +0.012 +0.008 Sample 10 +0.012 +0.007 Tolerance range 0~+0.015 0~+0.01
[0072] According to Tables 1 and 2, after the improvement, the roughness of the radial hole 51 of the cylinder body 5 is reduced, the tolerance range of the radial hole 51 of the cylinder body 5 is reduced, and the machining accuracy and machining stability are improved.
[0073] A radial hole machining device for a plunger pump cylinder body, which is a cooling mechanism, includes a cooling tank 1. A feeding component 2 and a moving component 3 are provided on one side of the cooling tank 1. The feeding component 2 is used to deliver coolant into the cooling tank 1, and the moving component 3 is used to drive the cooling tank 1 to move. A plurality of cooling components 4 are provided on the cooling tank 1, and the plurality of cooling components 4 are circumferentially distributed.
[0074] The feeding assembly 2 includes a moving pipe 21 and a connecting pipe 22, which are coaxially arranged. One end of the moving pipe 21 is fixedly mounted on the cooling tank 1, and the other end of the moving pipe 21 is movably connected to the connecting pipe 22. The connecting pipe 22 is connected to a coolant supply device, which can be a coolant storage tank. The inner cavity of the connecting pipe 22, the inner cavity of the moving pipe 21, and the inner cavity of the cooling tank 1 form a coolant delivery channel. In practice, both the cooling tank 1 and the cylinder 5 are cylindrical. After the cylinder 5 is fixed at the machining position in the machining center, the cylinder 5 is located in the moving tank. On the side away from the moving pipe 21, and with the cylinder 5, cooling box 1 and moving pipe 21 all in a coaxial state, the moving component 3 drives the cooling box 1 to move towards the cylinder 5, and makes the side of the cooling box 1 away from the connecting pipe 22 fit with the end of the cylinder 5 with the oil hole 52. During the processing of the cylinder 5, the coolant supply device delivers coolant from the connecting pipe 22 and the moving pipe 21 to the cooling box 1 in sequence. The coolant in the cooling box 1 then acts on the cylinder 5 through the cooling component 4 to achieve the cooling of the cylinder 5. During the movement of the cooling box 1, the moving pipe 21 moves synchronously on the connecting pipe 22.
[0075] The moving component 3 includes a moving ring 31. An annular groove 32 is provided on the outer peripheral wall of the moving tube 21. The annular groove 32 matches the moving ring 31. The moving ring 31 is movably sleeved on the annular groove 32. The moving ring 31 is driven by a cylinder 33 to move along the length direction of the moving tube 21. The length of the annular groove 32 is equal to the length of the moving ring 31. When the cylinder 33 drives the moving ring 31 to move along the length direction of the moving tube 21, the moving ring 31 pushes the inner wall of the end of the annular groove 32 to make the moving tube 21 move synchronously. The movement of the moving tube 21 drives the cooling box 1 to move synchronously. In addition, when the central rotating device drives the cylinder 5 to rotate at a set angle, the rotation of the cylinder 5 drives the cooling box 1 to rotate synchronously through the cooling component 4. The rotation of the cooling box 1 drives the moving tube 21 to rotate synchronously on the connecting pipe 22. During the rotation of the moving tube 21, the moving ring 31 is in a stationary state.
[0076] The cooling assembly 4 includes a first cooling pipe 41, a second cooling pipe 42, and a control valve 43. One end of the first cooling pipe 41 is inserted from the side of the cooling box 1 away from the feeding assembly 2. The second cooling pipe 42 is located outside the cooling box 1, with one end inserted into the cooling box 1. The control valve 43 is located inside the cooling box 1. Both the first cooling pipe 41 and the second cooling pipe 42 are connected to the control valve 43. When the side of the cooling box 1 away from the connecting pipe 22 is in contact with the end of the cylinder 5 that has an oil hole 52, the first cooling pipe 41 is inserted into the oil hole 52 one by one.
[0077] When using a pliers drill to remove large excess material and form radial holes 51, the coolant in the cooling box 1 can only be discharged from the second cooling pipe 42 and act on the outer wall of the cylinder 5 through the control valve 43, that is, the coolant acts on the pliers drilling position to achieve cooling of the cylinder 5.
[0078] During the processes of removing the bottom allowance of the hole using a flat end mill, finishing with a boring tool, and machining with a hobbing cutter, the coolant in the cooling tank 1 can only be delivered to the oil hole 52 through the first cooling pipe 41, controlled by the control valve 43. The coolant in the oil hole 52 is then discharged from the radial hole 51, thus cooling the cylinder 5. This not only improves the reliability of the coolant entering the radial hole 51 and prevents the tool from blocking the coolant from entering the radial hole 51, but also allows the coolant to be discharged in time after absorbing heat, improving the heat dissipation effect and reducing the deformation caused by overheating, thereby improving the machining accuracy.
[0079] After the radial hole 51 is machined, the control valve 43 at the corresponding position controls the first cooling pipe 41 and the second cooling pipe 42 at the corresponding position to close, that is, the coolant in the cooling box 1 cannot enter the first cooling pipe 41 and the second cooling pipe 42.
[0080] In addition, during the rotation of the cylinder 5, the cylinder 5 drives the cooling box 1 to rotate synchronously through the second cooling pipe 42;
[0081] In summary, when machining the radial holes 51 on the cylinder block 5, the present invention eliminates the need for precision grinding of the radial holes 51, reducing the flow of parts and improving machining efficiency. Furthermore, the surface roughness of the radial holes 51 on the cylinder block 5 is reduced, and the tolerance range of the radial holes 51 is decreased, improving machining accuracy and stability. In addition, during the machining of the radial holes 51, coolant is delivered from the oil hole 52 into the radial holes 51, which not only improves the reliability of coolant entering the radial holes 51 and prevents the tool from blocking the coolant from entering the radial holes 51, but also allows the coolant to be discharged in time after absorbing heat, improving heat dissipation and reducing deformation caused by overheating, thereby further improving machining accuracy.
[0082] In addition to the above embodiments, the present invention also includes other embodiments. All technical solutions formed by equivalent transformation or equivalent substitution should fall within the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
